We will look at “What is your why?” Why we need to be clear about our WHY, how this drives our behaviour anddistinguishes us from our competition and what motivates and inspires usto do our very best work every day, and how you can attract and retain the clients you want to work with.
We will then look at “Walking your customer journey”. Do you and your team deliver your values and story in a consistent way? What experience do your customers have with your business? In this fun, interactive and enlightening workshop we will help you look at your business from a different perspective - from the eyes of your customer!
Our third workshop will look at “Who do you think you are?” How you can enhance your personal and business profile so that you have the leading edge on your competitors and strengthen your brand position. We’ll show you how to become a brand ambassador creating an authentic, stand-out identity, set of values and personality for your business.
Our final workshop will show you how to “Get your message out!” Building on everything you have learned during the day we will finish with a very practical workshop showing you how you can use video in social media to share your business story, values and messages with your customers. We'll look at why every business needs video content and how you can get this onto YouTube, Twitter, Snap Chat and Facebook.
At the end of the afternoon we will have a panel discussion with former winners of the ASB National Business Awards. They will share their experiences of the application and interview process and how winning an award has impacted their businesses.
In Stirling only, we will have one extra short presentation from The Responsible Safari Company.
